ubottuEn la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter.10:20
nikoi can't reproduce it :/10:21
Fuchsniko: I tried  !es > user  in #ubuntu10:21

Sidewinder1Well, it's gonna be a good day; Fuchs is Pming himself. :-)10:28
Fuchsniko: looking good. Merci et bonne week-end :)10:28
FuchsSidewinder1: I love to hear myself talking10:29
Sidewinder1Know what you mean; we have a Siberian Husky that whines to hear himself whine.10:29
FuchsI sure hope he doesn't do that when you try to sleep, otherwise: cute :)10:30
nikobon week-end aussi :)10:31
Sidewinder1Fuchs, No, I swear he's got an alarm clock inside. He'll whine within 10 mins of when his mommy gets home, his dinner time, time to wake and go out, 05:50 this am. :-( So I walked him and his uncle, another, older Siberian.10:39
Fuchsreminds me why I don't have pets anymore ;)10:39
Sidewinder1Nah, in spite of the add'l maintenance we love them. They both have personality, like you wouldn't believe.10:40

quackersI see16:44

Fuchsquackers: /msg nickserv identify  yourpassword16:45
AlanBell!register16:45
ubottuInformation about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode16:45
quackersoh, I thought I'd done that. I'll try again16:45
quackersdone16:46
Fuchsquackers: and there you have your lovely cloak. Congratulations :)16:46
quackersI'm cloaked! Just like a Clingon!  Oh happy day :-)  Thank you16:46
AlanBellyay, thanks Fuchs16:46
FuchsYou're welcome :)16:46
AlanBellabout time to organise a release party I think16:47
quackersthanks AB and Fuchs!16:47
FuchsYou're welcome16:47
Fuchsyou might want to configure your client to auto-identify,16:47
Fuchswhich one are you using?16:47
quackersxchat  and can you tell me how?16:48
quackersI'll have a mooch around in here16:48
Fuchssure, for XChat I either recommend using SASL (Link follows) or putting in your  accountname:password   in the server password field (link coming)16:48
Fuchshttp://freenode.net/sasl/README.txt  << SASL   or  http://fun07.online-net.org/bilder/x-chat/2.jpg  << password field16:49
Fuchsusing these methods are prefered to using the nickserv field, since the cloak will be applied before joining channels then  (might fail in very few cases on the latter method, but still better than nickserv)16:49
quackersThanks, am investigating now :-)16:49
FuchsYou're welcome16:50
quackersI only speak a little German Fuchs, but does that second link refer to the "Network setup" page where it says near the bottom Proxy Authentication nthen use Authentication (HTTP or Socks5 only)16:55
Fuchsarg16:55
Fuchssorry, I'll look for an english one :)16:55
Fuchsit was the first google hit and I didn't notice16:55
Fuchshttp://www.afternet.org/_media/help/connecting/edit-xchat-network.png  << this should be in the dialogue where you edit servers / network16:55
quackersnp, I have a window open as described above and in the left pane it says Nedtwork then Network Setup16:55
Fuchsgo to the freenode entry you usually use to connect here, and set   yourusername:yourpassword  (including the : ) as the server password there16:56
Fuchsas I am not using Xchat myself, I unfortunately can't give you better directions, but I am quite sure that you'll find people who can :)16:56
quackersI'm done..... I think17:22
quackersauto-connect and auto-identify are complete17:22
quackersI hope17:22

AlanBellscott-work: hi19:36

ubottuInformation about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode19:36
AlanBell!nickserv19:36
AlanBell!identify19:37
ubottuYou can identify automatically by using your NickServ password as the server password in your IRC client. When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, or a typo may give away your password. If that happened, type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible.19:37
AlanBellthats the one I was after19:37
scott-worki do enter a password to authenticate for both accounts every time i log on19:38
k1l_better use "username:password" as the server passwort.19:38
AlanBellyeah, but you can put it in your IRC client19:38
k1l_else you will get the changing host join/part because nickserv is too slow19:38
scott-worki do for ScottL which is using xchat at my home laptop, but at work i am forced to use webchat and i type that manually each time19:38
AlanBellanyhow, if you apply to join https://launchpad.net/~irc-ubuntustudio-ops/+members we will sort that out fairly soon19:39
k1l_scott-work: if you use the webchat.freenode.net you can enter it ther by hitting the checkbox19:39
scott-workdoing it now AlanBell19:40
voriani'd like to get my ubuntu cloak please :) - launchpad.net/~vorian19:41
AlanBellscott-work: in the queue is taowa who is just a badge seeker and wont get it, and holstein, do you know who holstein is?19:41
AlanBellhi vorian19:41
vorianhola19:41
scott-workAlanBell: holstein is part of the ubuntustudio-dev team like astraljava is19:42
scott-worki'm project lead for the team, btw ;)19:42
AlanBellok, great19:42
AlanBellcan astraljava apply for the team too19:42
holstein\o/19:43
holsteinare we claiming our channels?19:44
AlanBellscott-work: have a flick through this too https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorRequirements19:44
AlanBellhi holstein19:44
scott-workAlanBell: i will ask astraljava19:44
holsteinAlanBell: hello!19:44
AlanBellvorian: yup that all looks to be in order :)19:44
holsteini joined here a long time ago to go through the steps to get ops in #ubuntustudio ...but i got busy19:44
AlanBellstaff can we get an ubuntu/member/vorian cloak for vorian please19:45
vorianthanks AlanBell19:45
AlanBellvorian: did you have an ubuntu cloak before?19:45
vorianyes, few years ago19:46
AlanBellah, right, I was about to add you to https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-irc-cloaks but you are already in it :)19:46
voriani kind of drifted away, but i'm coming back for the 12.10 cycle19:46
AlanBellholstein: scott-work: so #ubuntustudio is one of the core channels so we have a slightly more formal ops process than things like e loco team channels, we do training for the new operators and you become part of the core ops team of about 40 people19:47
holsteinyeah, im into it... i was reading up on it, and i think i misseda training session19:48
AlanBellvorian: great to hear it, 12.10 should be good, I am going to the UDS for 12.1019:48
holsteinAlanBell: anyways, thanks for taking the time to talk us through it :)19:48
AlanBellwe are going through the training with a current batch of people, I think we will start a new batch early in the 12.10 cycle19:49
voriani'll have a lot of catching up before/during uds19:49
scott-workAlanBell: has the new training session been scheduled already, or just loosely in early 12.10?19:50
AlanBellwell the precise release is kind of the deadline for completing the training of the current intake19:51
AlanBellI am trying to get it more regular and in line with the release cadence19:51
scott-workAlanBell: just to be clear, i didn't really want to op for all channel, not into a power trip, i just wanted the latitude to be able to set the topic and such in #ubuntustudio (not sure that i was clear about that)19:51
AlanBellthats fine, the core ops are not ops across all channels19:52
scott-workokay :)  i don't mind being a little dangerous in my own backyard but don't want to be really dangerous in others ;)19:52
holsteinAlanBell: i'll kee an eye out for it, and try and make myself more available for the training19:52
holsteinkeep*19:52
AlanBellwe can just coordinate stuff across channels and once you are an op in one channel you can add other channels easily19:53
AlanBellanyhow, time for my dinner, chinese I think :)19:53
holsteinAlanBell: thanks again!19:54
astraljavaHi, according to scott-work's recommendations, I applied for #ubuntustudio IRC ops on LP. What can I do next to get things going?19:54
holsteinastraljava: we come for training19:54
AlanBellastraljava: now a bit of waiting I am afraid :)19:55
astraljavaAlanBell: Thanks! :)19:55
Myrttivorian: did you want to keep parts of your current cloak or just replace it?19:59
vorianjust replace it please :)20:00
astraljavaAlanBell: Will you inform us about the beginning of the training? Or do we need to hang out on this channel until that date?20:06
Myrttivorian: there you go20:07
AlanBellastraljava: you will get a mail from launchpad at the very least20:07
vorianthanks Myrtti20:07
AlanBellyou are welcome to hang out here too20:08
astraljavaAlanBell: Excellent, thanks! I tend to keep my open buffer list to a minimum when possible, so I'll join back again when the training starts. Thanks for your help so far! :)20:08
